Hello all,

I am planning on doing the timing belt on my 1993 240 this weekend. I am excited about this project but am worried about precision.

I was at Sears this past weekend and bought a Craftsman Microtork 1/2" drive torque wrench. Lo and behold, I get home and start doing some poking around on the internet and find the worst reviews imaginable.

I am thinking about returning it and buying something else. Does anyone here have any tool recommendations or do you think the Craftsman would be okay? I have other Craftsman tools and I think they are great but their torque wrench seems to be a different animal. I don't want to take chances with my engine.

Thanks!
Jon
